auth
auth/doc.go
Break client verification out, break token returns out. Break client verification out into a helper function to avoid rewriting it for pretty much every grant. Break token returns out into a new function as part of the GrantType, so that implicit grants can redirect with the token value. Split returning the token as JSON into its own exported function, which can be used in multiple grants. Return more relevant information to the template when a user is deciding whether or not to authorize a grant.

2 Package auth provides an authentication service for managing user accounts and an OAuth2 provider.
4 The service is an opinionated implementation of authentication using passphrases and the
5 code.secondbit.org/pass package to implement user credentials and accounts. Additionally, users
6 are permitted to login using their email address on record or their username interchangeably.
7 Care is also taken to be able to mitigate attacks that have already happened and plan ahead for
8 the worst case scenarios.
10 An OAuth2 provider is also built-in and provided, complete with client registration and management,
11 as well as a specification-based set of handlers for managing the issuing of grants and tokens. Token
12 validiity may be asserted through an API, or a proxy service is provided for stripping auth-specific
13 information from requests and replacing it with a trusted header containing information about the user
14 and client that authorized the request.
